It's that time of year again! Time to go shopping for new swimsuits, ice cream, and going swimming.

You have one little dilemma, though.

You can't decide whether the dress you are about to put on is in this season, or totally last season. How do you know? Here's the first thing you need to do; throw that dress away, pull out the crop tops and shorts. This year, we are going to try and avoid the whole "Baby doll" look, because, well, you're getting older, and that trend is also getting old.

You search all over for something to wear, and all you have is old T-shirts. What will you do? You're gonna DIY. That's what you're gonna do. In the next few paragraphs, I'm going to show you some tips to make your own DIY shirts perfect for the summer time.

Ingredients

A pair of scissors An old shirtDepending on what you want to do, you might want fabric glue.

Step 1: Find an old T-shirt

First, you want to find an old tee shirt that you don't wear anymore. The reason for this, is that you don't want to use a shirt that is new and you wear a lot, just in case you ruin it or mess up.

Step 2: make measurements according to your body

You want to measure your top, to make sure that you don't cut it too short, or too long.

step 4: Make designs or cut the back to look cute

If you want, you can cut off the sleeves, it depends on how comfortable you are with the amount of skin showing. There are many designs you can do with the back. Experiment with it. If you feel uncomfortable making a bunch of small cuts in the shirt, just watch this video to reassure you.

Step 3:Cut where needed

After making the measurements, cut where needed. I recommend cutting a few centimeters below where you marked so it doesn't end up too low.
